Diaper Adventure

When Pedro Montes started to attend with his brother, I was far from thinking that I would have 5 kenshi whose age is still referred to in months.

They are so young that gassho is made on the nose, eyes and everywhere except for the right spot. Although they never cease to thanks when the dogi is fixed. They run, jump, play as the trem (zuki) kick the ball (geri) and grab the moon (uwa uke).

They are my joy in every training/practice some can barely speak but their smiles reflect the happiness with which they are in the dojo during the whole practice.

The most rewarding experience there is, is to teach Shorinji Kempo to whom can barely run even walk.
